Explanation
The FakeProvider class is useful in tests because it allows you to pass a provider that doesn't make HTTP requests to a library such as
eth-query
.Previously, this class was only available in NetworkController tests. We want to now start using it in other tests, specifically along with
eth-query
. However, one problem I noticed is that it doesn't conform to SafeEventEmitterProvider completely. So this commit not only moves it to a more global location but also corrects its API so that it can be passed toeth-query
